What motivates you? If you’re not afraid of failure, are you afraid of missed opportunities? When you don’t start or don’t try, you miss a whole series of opportunities because you don’t put yourself in the “right place at the right time.”
Today… try.
I mentioned a couple days ago that if you started blogging today and did it twice a week, in a month you’d have 8 posts. That’s true. But how about this, if you don’t blog, you’ll miss out on someone reading the information you share and being changed by it.
It’s time to create your corner of the web. Pick the thing you are most drawn to… blogging (like this) which is a simple typing of your story. Vlogging which is video storytelling. Or Podcasting which is the equivalent of a radio program. It’s your choice, which ever medium is most comfortable, choose and start.
A couple things to remember as you are starting… It won’t be perfect. Really, it shouldn’t be… the important thing is “doing”. If you ask anyone if they like their first 20 posts, find comfort that they do not! The other thing about starting, you can do this just for yourself. Practice! Write in Word on your computer (or hand write it and have someone else type it). Press record on your phone and save it. You can upload later.
Don’t get hung up on the technology…
